Posted May 25, 2012
When Mike Voight passed away this week, he left behind a legacy of football greatness at North Carolina. He is still the second-leading rusher in school history and ranks second in career touchdowns. He was ACC Player of the Year in both 1975 and 1976. Voight ran for 3,971 yards and scored 42 touchdowns from 1973 to 1976 at Carolina. He was the first ACC player to ever post three 1,000-yard rushing seasons. (Tar Heel Blue)
